Great. They use pejorative names to describe the Kim Jongs. How about, instead, they put their bastard child back in the box? "Best" Korea is China's legacy; they're the ones that need to deal with it. If it weren't for them, they'd have a stable, unified, thriving capitalist Korean peninsula with which to trade and make more money today.

When the Chi-coms put a bullet in the back of the head of a political prisoner, harvest his organs and sell his body so it can be displayed in "science" museums around the world, well, that political prisoner had it coming.

Just remember who the party is that's selling us melamine-laced foods, "farm" raised fish from sewers, etc.

The Communist Chinese love North Korea. Best Korea makes them look real good to the West.

Danger Avoid Death:scottydoesntknow: You had me going there subby. Officials aren't at the name calling stage yet. The general Chinese populace has been calling him that pretty much since the day he took over.

Instead, they've let this boil on the ass of humanity fester.

To them, there's more important things than money.

I'm sure there are. But I'm also sure they don't like having a parasitic neighbor full of future refugees looking north

North Korea is like the nere-do well brother in law that's sleeping on China's couch. He is loud, spends their money, won't get a job and leaves a mess in the kitchen and the living room. China would love to get rid of him, but can't.

There was a report not so long ago that stated that the Chinese had massed a number of troops on the northern NK border. Mostly there to keep the NK people in NK during this mess, I imagine they're also there to push into NK if it looks like SK is going to try push into NK from the south.

Chinese officials most certainly do not refer to King Jong as "Fatty", regardless of their feelings about his recent antics. I can't find a link right now but I'm pretty sure exactly one Chinese news outlet ran a story referring to Kim Jong in that manner and the author of the story was suspended as a result.

Also, the linked article specifically states that "ordinary Chinese" use the phrase, not officials. So, good job all around there, Subby and Telegraph et al.

What I can't figure out is, wtf are all these generals and stooges all decorated for? You know, wtf did they DO to get all those flashy ribbons and twizzlers and fizzbangers on their unis?

So, I'm no expert on North Korean uniforms, but having watched plenty of clips of DPRK generals and officers, that picture looks like some kind of BS photoshop. Sure, some countries love to go nuts with the military decorations but medals on their pants and all along their sleeves? Yeah right.

Subby:How friendly is the relationship between China and Best Korea right now? Well, when Chinese officials refer to Kim Jong-Un as "Fatty Kim" or "Fatty The Third", what does that tell you?

FTFA:"Certainly North Korea no longer merits much respect among ordinary Chinese, who have taken to insulting Kim Jong-un as "Fatty Kim" or "Fatty the Third", in reference to his father and grandfather, on the Chinese internet."

Dear Submittard, you fail at life. Get off the Internet, and learn to read before you come back.
